Luli Gray's Falcon And The Carousel Of Time (0618448950, $15.00) tells of pre-teen falcon, who is too old for magic and fantasy but has a family legacy of such which can't be denied. When her aunt suffers a heart attack, only Falcon's heritage and belief in magic may be able to save her, as she journeys to 1903 New York for the answer in a time-travel expedition. Bonnie Geisert's Lessons (061847899X, $15.00) tells of Rachel, who's looking forward to summer's end and the start of fifth grade, but who finds her family harboring a secret about her baby brother. Rachel begins asking for answers--and discovers some hard challenges to adjust to, in the process of learning the truth her parents are hiding. A warm story of family change and acceptance.
